They
must be here soon – I long for them…The base
color is Jessica Surfer Boyz’n Berries and I sponged the tips with Butter
London Wallis and OPI Goldeneye in a random pattern. I painted the snowdrops
with acrylic craft color, and the top coat is Seche Vite.

The base
color is as you might have guessed it Chick Rocker Chick, also a blind passenger, a gorgeous, blackened
dark purple with shimmer. With the brush in Kiko 234 Sparkle Touch I painted
the tips, and then I painted the flowers with acrylic craft color and top
coated with Seche Vite…

The base
color is Chick Hipster Chick, the BLIND passenger, a yellow-based green polish with holographic micro
glitter. I was pretty sure it would clash completely with my skin, and it did.
So I painted a dark green flower vine with bright flowers in acrylic craft
color, and top coated with Seche Vite.

The them for this Artsy Wednesday is color blocks, and I'll show them used as a part of an abstract nail art.

I have
previously shown swatches of them, and here they are combined in an abstract
mani. On one coat of the gorgeous shimmery deep forest green Illamasqua
Viridian I painted a random pattern with Illamasqua Glitteratiusing the bottle brush. Then I used a gold striper to surround the Glitterati and add a little
extra pattern before I top coated with Seche Vite.

The first was sent to me by NORWAY NAILS - please check their amazing store....Jealousy is a grass green PACKED with glitter, and here it's shown in ONE - I repeat ONE coat + Seche Vite top coat - pretty amazing, huh..? It
applied fairly thick, but not in the goopy way, it’s nice and manageable, just
very rich on the brush.

Next up is Jade - a pretty mint green with a lovely shimmer. This is 2 coats without top coat!

Finally we have Honey Dew, that I got from my dear friend Lydia in a swap.It's a beautiful pale mint, and here shown in two coats, but you might want to apply 3 thinner coats depending on how you
normally apply polish. All of the above polishes are available in NORWAY NAILS - they ship throughout Scandinavia...

Do you have problems commenting??I had to change settings because of an insane amount of spam, so now only "registered users" can comment, but I'm not sure if that means all of you!

Prism is a shimmer perfect to use over other colors, on top half it's shown over black, and on the bottom half over a medium blue and lavender - perfect for effect on other polishes and in nail art. To my knowledge it's only sold in this set.

Harsh is in my opinion a PERFECT silver glitter - I am very happy about this one too!

Elope is a beautiful emerald green, it needs 3 coats to be opaque.

I know, I have shown Throb before - but I think it should be shown together with the others from this set - it's a beautiful blood red...
